Patient's question:
I'm only 32 years old, I don't have a girlfriend, and I don't have any bad sexual habits either. But recently, I've noticed that there's always white stuff coming out of my urethral opening, and it feels itchy and painful when I urinate. I think it might be prostatitis. Could you please tell me: How is prostatitis cyst treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Smaller, asymptomatic cysts may not require treatment. Larger cysts or symptomatic small cysts can be treated surgically, with various approaches such as transurethral, extravesical, perineal, or transrectal. Poor exposure often leads to incomplete surgical removal. The recurrence rate is high, and complications are common. If the cyst is near the perineum, perineal approach surgery may lead to erectile dysfunction (ED), so it should be used cautiously in young patients. Prostate cysts tend to recur easily, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is essential to seek professional and reputable medical treatment immediately and consider treatment based on examination results. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
